I know cable has the shared connection problem. Spectrum's system in my town places 24 connections per hub in each neighborhood. I would notice that at times too during heavy known usage times, like the Ohio State vs Michigan game and the Super Bowl. I'm not sure if fiber is shared in the same way. That's an interesting question and one I'll be looking into.
I looked into Star Link a while back but it's just way too expensive. Dishy McDishFace alone costs $600 and then the cheapest plan I could find was around $110 per month I believe. 5G, 6G, Whatever G, I don't believe will ever be a viable option. It's spotty, unreliable, drops off rapidly in speed vs distance from tower, and most importantly, is controlled by greedy wireless companies that you can't trust. Remember when Verizon called their 4G network 5GE to confuse everyone? That's the kind of crap they pull all the time.
